A new Wonderfalls...

Wonderfalls is one of my favorite TV series.

I'm still stunned that it was cancelled after only four episodes! And just before the best episode of the series had aired. That would be "Crime Dog", the episode with a talking cow creamer, a deported housekeeper, and a trip over the US / Canadian border. Get the DVD and watch it - you'll thank me.

Obviously, there's no chance it'll ever come back with new episodes. But something very similar has begun. My favorite TV show of the new season...

The fantasy look, the weird dialogue, the talented cast, and the insane situations eerily remind me of Wonderfalls. It helps that both were created by the same person and the main actor is from Wonderfalls.

What's Pushing Daisies about? It's described as a forensic fairy tale. Think, CSI & Wonderfalls smushed together into one show.

Critics already love it, which scares me. Usually, anything critics love is either terrible or gets cancelled quickly. This is anything but terrible and I'll be crushed if it's cancelled.

Did you miss the first episode? See it on the ABC website and DVR or tape new episodes Wednesday nights at 8pm on ABC.
